Happy Crimbo!

omg so tired. Everyone's gone now, though, so I can have a timeout or a nap or something. My meds getting screwed up has made me slightly hysterical--well, let me rewind that. The night I mentioned the medication problems, I managed to get my doctor on the phone, and while she never addressed why she refused authorization, she sounded like nothing was behind that and she was eager to get things straightened out for me and cognizant of me not having any Lamictal being a Bad Scene. So... I don't know what kind of misunderstanding happened, and I kind of don't care. But a couple of days' disruption has thrown me off enough that I've felt like crying all day, not even for any reason. Like, intellectually, I feel fine, but I have this physical sensation of distress. It's weird. I'm just saying, I'm glad to have some alone time now.

(By the way, I ended up posting the Secret Life of Dolls entry last night.)

MORE IMPORTANTLY. I've got about as many character doubles as I could ever possibly handle, and I love my little Toy Biz Galadriel, so this is strictly off-story, but...

Sweet baby Eru, I have never seen this much fabric on a doll. And she has a little rhinestone Nenya! Also: movie-accurate elven disco boots.

Also: SNOW.

If we've had a white Christmas before, I don't remember when it was. Five or six hours of it now, falling pretty thick and fast... and only just now starting to stick.

So, if applicable: what was your favorite Christmas present?

I think the last White Christmas _I_ had was in about 1993 or so. :P
Which figures, that was the year the blizzard struck. ^^;;;

My favorite present wasn't anything I received, actually (books, t-shirts, ducks) but knowing that I got the right things for my friends & loved ones.

And if that sounds sappy, well... usually my superpower (Being Disastrously Wrong) kicks in with a vengeance this time of year, so the fact that nobody said anything like, "Uh. Hmm. Well. Um, thanks?" makes me very happy.

Dropping by an old entry to rave about how fantastic Tonner Galadriel is! The detail is so good! Her hair! Her eyes! That dress, which is a complex construction we may never fully understand. It's funny, because the likeness isn't the creepily realistic kind Hot Toys are into, but it's somehow nicer, because it keeps that ethereal quality the elves have. (The elven disco boots are hilarious, though. The fact they are movie accurate just makes it funnier.)
